Yo-Yo Ma We the People Simulcast

Live simulcast one night only

This November Yo-Yo Ma will perform Bach’s complete suites for solo cello for the first time in one evening at home in Boston. It’s music that he has offered to communities on all six continents in moments of joy and in times of tragedy. For him it exemplifies how culture helps us to seek truth build trust and act in service.

This is more than a concert for Yo-Yo: it is an invitation to listen to each other and the world around us to celebrate our community and the ways in which people all over the world—and here in Massachusetts—are bringing us together creating shared space for connection reflection and action and imagining a better future.

Live broadcast one night only!
